Ernest had one wish on his “ Bucket List “ to sail the Atlantic ocean to Europe and other exotic destinations....He did just that.
May 1998 Ernie and Dianna set sail from Hamilton, ON. on their sailboat “ Gander Bay “ for an adventure of a life time.
They returned to Ontario in 2000 only to leave again in 2006 to continue the sailing adventure.
They settled in Victoria Cove, NL. in 2010 where gardening and “ Chickens “ became their new hobby!
Cremation has taken place.
Celebration of his life will take place at a later date.
This was what Ernie lived by....
BETTER TO PASS BOLDLY
INTO THAT OTHER WORLD
IN THE FULL GLORY OF SOME PASSION
THAN TO FADE AND WITHER
DISMALLY WITH OLD AGE

Fair winds Ernest...
